Another item in the room: this curtain. Concealing a passage, or a hidey-hole for spooks?
Or a small window - drawn because it's night?
I hadn't noticed it before - even though we've been staring at the display case. Speaking of which, you can't see through 2 sides of the case. Hmmm. Isn't there a sharp line between the curtain and the pillar - it's like the pillar image has chopped off the end of the curtain.
This thread is ridiculously entertaining and absorbing. I must find something else to do while I wait for the neg envelope to surface. I have a 10 week old baby. If she didn't sleep so much, I wouldn't be here - shouldn't complain!

Hadyn:
For the first time since posting it, I'm actually starting to look much more closely at the image. The two images below where I've highlighted show clear lines where the
photo has unmistakably been cut and put together as well as other tell-tale signs.
After a couple of days, I actually wondered whether the image was in fact transferred from a standard film negative onto the glass for some reason. The fact that the photo has been cut around, edited and put together provides this reason I would think.
It seems to beg the question:
why is the image of this room important enough to edit?
EDIT: I wondered why there are two seemingly identical negatives in the envelope. On my own computer I have two apparently identical files labelled 1 and 2.2. I've been assuming that they were both scans of the same negative, just that 2.2 was a rescan - I did the scans back in January. I just now noticed the sharp cut line in the image, then flicked back to the other scan and.... the line wasn't there!!!
I think I must have scanned both images (not one, as I had thought) which I assumed were identical, but are subtly different - one has been put together better. I will post both the images I have in a new post for all to inspect! This certainly proves quite a few theories!!!
